Has anyone ordered from K&K gardens?

I have placed order for replacement of hosta that I almost lost. They have couple of more expensive plants which I have been looking for but I have not heard about them before.

Anyone has experience?

    I have not purchased from them but if you put (K & K Gardens reviews) in the search bar you will get many reviews from on site, foot traffic.

    Most good but a few bad.

    They seem to have some hostas that you can't get elsewhere. I would be interested in knowing if they do mail order.

    Their hosta page has a link to this forum!


    I'd like to hear of experiences with their mail order hostas too.

    They appear to take online orders of many plants including hosta. They have a good selection of hostas, but may be a bit pricey. But I also could not find about the size of their plants so that could be a reason for price. The reviews that I saw were mostly very good.

    They are a full service retail nursery and do not offer mail order.

    How did Lakeland, Florida enter the picture?

    gardengal, are you sure about them not providing mail order? There is a "ship it to me" option on their checkout page. They don't seem to be adding shipping charges, though.

    I asked K & K directly through their Facebook page if they ship hostas. They said yes, "thousands."

    I didn't contact them directly but there is nothing on their websites that discusses mail order or shipping or shipping costs!

    If they do mail order, it is obviously not a big part of their business model.

    There are 2 K&K Nurseries. One is in Florida, one in Iowa.

    K&K Gardens is different from K&K Nursery

    Oops did not know there are more close names. Yes, I was talking about IA place. I was able to place an order however it seems they send paypal request after they process order. So far no word. But it is busy time.

    Thank you, I should have.

    Update, my order was processed and will ship tomorrow.

    Keep us posted on what you receive. I don't really have a hosta grower near me now that Wade & Gatton is gone (that was 90 miles away but doable)

    We visit Chicago several times a year but we never make it out of the Loop where our daughter lives. I take that back, we've been twice to the Chicago Botanical Garden but that was several years ago. I love the Chihully glass lily pads at Garfield Park. If Land of the Giants is open next year I hope to make it there but I assume that's at least 2-2 1/2 hours from the West Loop, maybe more since 90/94 is always so busy. I still have stuff to plant from Sebright and Mason so I shouldn't be looking for more. . . .

    I went to the K&K garden site in Iowa. They sell online and have many varieties of hosta as well as other plant.

    Looks like we have a new website to shop at and get more plants! Just what all of us need, more plants, lol
